Zhao Guogong Zhao Huaili is the elder brother of the current queen, who is over sixty years old but maintains a good figure. He is low-key and shrewd, never offends people easily, and does not deliberately please anyone.

But he always has a scale in his heart, and he always weighs the gains and losses. Don't look at him as happy when he meets people, in fact, he only respects two or three people in the entire Stygian Water Empire.

At this moment, he prepared wine and food in the back garden, and ordered all idlers and others not to enter. A silver-armored young man sat down with him, chatting and laughing, and only a maid was waiting not far away.

The two did not move their chopsticks, apparently waiting for someone.

As he spoke, he saw Fu Sheng leading a man in black to walk in quietly through the back door.

Zhao Guogong smiled loudly: "But the son-in-law has arrived? ”

The silver-armored young man was obviously a little unnatural when he heard the word "son-in-law".

Chu Feiyan walked up to the two, bowed to Zhao Guogong, and then looked at the young man suspiciously.

"Oh, this is General Zige, don't look at him as young but deeply trusted by His Majesty, now he is in an important position responsible for the defense of the periphery of the capital, and he is also his own person!"

Chu Feiyan nodded, and then took off his mask.

Although he had been mentally prepared, Zhao Huaili was still surprised when he saw Chu Feiyan's familiar face.

That Brother Zi was disdainful in his heart: is he Chu Feiyan, the chosen son of the year, he looks bland, and a little down, how could Xie Shuai take such a fancy to him?

Zhao Huaili looked at Chu Feiyan and sighed for a moment: "I must have suffered a lot and lost weight." He patted him lightly on the shoulder, "Sit down and talk, sit down and talk." ”

"I've already inquired about your affairs with Xie Shuai, you can't blame him. Zhao Guogong personally poured a glass of wine for Chu Feiyan.

Chu Feiyan was moved in his heart, Zhao Huaili was as kind and kind as the elders in the family, his own affairs must have brought a lot of trouble to the Guogong Mansion, otherwise he would not have affected Zhao Shu, but when they met, not only did he not have half a word of blame, but he had a lot of care between his words.

Chu Feiyan said apologetically: "Don't hide it from the prince, the liquor is burning, and the kid can't drink anymore." ”

Brother Zi laughed in his heart: It's really weak and pretentious.

"Oh?"

Zhao Huaili was very surprised, thought about it and said, "Could it be that the rumors are true, you are here?" said and pointed to Chu Feiyan's chest.

Chu Feiyan smiled dumbly: "I think that the first time I learned to drink was on the battlefield, I was also high-spirited and not afraid of life and death, but now..."

"Hey~" Zhao Huaili sighed, "Don't mention it, don't mention it, this world and this court have already changed." ”

Chu Feiyan called the maid to pour a cup of tea, and said: "The kid has replaced the wine with tea to make amends for your old man, and this time I came back for the sake of the year, and it is not my wish to disturb you, but I am concerned about Zhao Shu's safety, so I came here to see her, I wonder if she is okay?"

Brother Zi frowned, his face was displeased: "With me here, you don't have to worry about her safety." ”

Chu Feiyan just glanced at him lightly, ignoring Brother Zi's verbal provocation.

"Ah Shu was a little frightened, and now she is resting in the wing, and she is fine. It's just that Brother Zi found that someone was following her when he picked her up, so he went back to the house first. ”

"I couldn't believe it when I first heard the news from her that you're still alive. Zhao Huaili didn't feel very emotional, "This is the so-called Jiren has his own natural appearance." ”

Then I will be at ease. Chu Feiyan suddenly knelt down to Zhao Huaili and said, "Now that I have become a taboo and nightmare of the dark water, and my next road is even more dangerous, and I can no longer affect Miss and the Guogong Mansion." ”

Zhao Huaili was shocked: "What do you mean?"

Chu Feiyan took out the "self-renunciation book" from his arms and handed it over, to the effect that his sins were difficult to atone for, and he was not worthy of Zhao Shu, so he withdrew from the marriage, and finally left a blood mark and a phoenix pendant to prove the authenticity.

Zhao Huaili looked at it, and his always kind face showed anger, and he trembled his hands and didn't speak for a long time. Suddenly, he slapped the letter on the table.

Brother Zi glanced at it and suddenly understood. I was happy and angry in my heart, and I was so happy that I could justifiably pursue Zhao Shu from now on, and I was angry that although the letter must mention a few times, this is still no different from a divorce.

"It's just disrespectful!" Brother Zi shouted angrily, and he wanted to give him some color to see. He picked up the Xuan Gong and grabbed Chu Feiyan's throat with one claw from a high place.

Chu Feiyan was still kneeling on the ground at this time, but Brother Zi found that Xuan Gong was like a mud cow entering the sea, dissipating and invisible before it could be touched, and when he wanted to exert further strength, he was forced back by an amazing chill.

And this is still unintentional by the other party, this kind of skill and sense of oppression he has only seen in Xie Yun, so the palm of his hand is hanging in the air, neither advancing nor retreating, extremely embarrassing.

Chu Feiyan got up and looked at Brother Zi coldly, startling the latter to retreat in a hurry, his face embarrassed.

"You are always cherished!" Chu Feiyan confessed to Zhao Huaili again and turned away.

"Wait!"

Chu Feiyan paused.

Zhao Huaili said coldly: "Who are you and Zhao Huaili? What is the place of the Guogong Mansion? It's up to you to be so willful!"

Chu Feiyan's heart trembled: After all, it annoyed him, but there was no other way, and he must not implicate the Guogong Mansion again. was about to say something, but saw Zhao Huaili suddenly tear the "self-abandonment book" to shreds.

Brother Zi was shocked in his heart: "Guogong, you?"

Zhao Huaili said with an awe-inspiring expression: "I, Zhao Huaili, am wise and self-protecting, and I am not a good person, but I am definitely not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong." I'm angry that you kid actually underestimate me so much! I only ask you one thing, you just have to answer me truthfully, otherwise I won't let you today!"

Chu Feiyan turned around in amazement and looked at Zhao Huaili, who was furious, as if he had met him for the first time.

"Is your heart always faithful to the waters?"

Chu Feiyan took a deep breath and said loudly: "Of course!"

"Okay, I'll help you get over this unjust case!"

Chu Feiyan was shocked: "This matter is too dangerous..."

Zhao Huaili laughed and interrupted him: "Do you think that we can get rid of our relationship with this letter, in fact, we have long been inseparable." For the sake of the Guogong Mansion and for the sake of Zhao Shu, I must also clear your name in order to protect everyone. ”

"Now the dark water is in danger, but there is a villain in the palace who has the idea of beating Xie Shuai. If Xie Shuai falls, then the dark water will be completely hopeless, if it is not for survival, I will not be strong, Xie Shuai needs help, and the empire needs you to become the chosen son to turn the tide again, do you understand!"

Chu Feiyan looked at this familiar old man in a daze, he had never expected Zhao Huaili to be so deeply aware of righteousness. A wave of enthusiasm came to my heart, this feeling of being understood and needed by others had been lost for a long time, and under the excitement of the mood, there was a heart-piercing pain in my chest.

"And I know who framed you in the first place!"

This sentence sounded in his ears as if thunder roared, and Chu Feiyan staggered and turned pale: "Who is it!"
